Je me suis lancé dans Half-Life Alyx. Pas encore fini, mais si je me base sur les succÚs je suis allé plus loin que 80% des joueurs, et vu le niveau que je viens de passer je crois que j'ai une idée de pourquoi... Fuck Jeff.

C'est clairement une des meilleures expériences VR que j'ai pu faire, la physique est impressionnante et il y a plein de bonnes idées d'interaction.

Mais au risque d'en choquer certains, en fait ça me fait presque un peu chier que ce soit Half-Life. Et en particulier, une préquelle d'Half-Life 2, dans les poubelles et les égouts de City 17, avec des headcrab zombies et le Combine partout. C'est en grande partie déjà vu, c'est crade et moche 100% du temps, ça lasse je trouve. Heureusement qu'il y a pas mal d'humour dans les dialogues.

He was a king, and died old (after trying to cheat death, which is why he's been punished). So yeah, safe to assume he had a wife.

In some versions of the myth, she is even mentioned and unknowingly plays a part in his plan to trick the Underworld gods.

They say we shouldn't attribute to malice what could be attributed to stupidity, let's try that :

"Wait, people searching for books don't like that we help destroy real books en masse to feed the infinite fake book machines? Oh, my bad, we hadn't realized, we're not doing that then."

Yeah, I'm not absolutely convinced.

Using the old logic of creationists and other fake historians : "They gave that guy a huuuuge grave, obviously he was a giant".

Gave up on Sims too, I don't even care enough to pirate it no matter how trivial it is at this point.

I got Paralives. It's still very early, but it could get somewhere.

For now my main problem with it is it's very light on autonomous simulation. And though I like the idea of storytellers, at this point they barely do anything. I want freaking chaos in my game, and it should be more varied than just "Hey, what if sudden crush on that random person?".

The cards and progression system are good ideas though. Again, they need nore variety.

Not at all an achievement hunter, and Steam is not my default gaming platform...

But I checked my rarest achievements and I've got a 1.4%. Which does not sound much, except it's in fucking Skyrim, and absolutely trivial to get.

OK, there's the catch : it's because this is Skyrim VR. It's the achievement you get just for mining ore and chopping wood.

Looks like there are some relatively easy .3/.4% to get there if you've got a VR headset and some dedication. And manage to keep the game working long enough to get those. That might be the hardest part, because ... Bethesda.

Problem with that is you wouldn't be able to win the lottery unless you're buying tickets, and in that case you would probably not be a natural at that wisely investing money thing.

Fediverse needs that. There's just not enough people to attain the one cool thing about reddit, that was having a couple people create communities around basically any niche hobby you could think of.

Only very generic topics or ultra-popular stuff get some traction, and in many cases it's barely a blip.
